Cook ’n Talk Odense
Cook ’n Talk Odense is a social event developed
and carried out by a group of volunteers that
started in 2014.
In May 2014 we held our first Cook ’n Talk
session with 12 participants. We were afraid of
not being able of fulfilling their expectations,
but the event turned out to be a huge success.
Today we are more than 450 members, and we
are constantly growing.
So far we have held around 20 Cook ’n Talk
events. We have cooked dishes from Sudan,
Iran, Mexico, Spain, USA, India, Malaysia,
Bulgaria, Poland, Turkey, Palestine, Russia, and
more.
Cook ’n Talk gives expats and Danes the opportunity to make new friends, try out new foods
and gain a better understanding of new
cultures through its flavors and interesting
conversations.

International Community
Odense
International Community Odense is an initiative by the
City of Odense. We are here to welcome international employees and their families to Odense, help them settle, and
introduce them to social networks and activities around
the city.
Our ambition is to make the city of Odense a welcoming
and attractive place to live, work and enjoy your leisure
time. And we know that food plays a major role, when getting adapted to life in another country!
Therefore, we hope you will enjoy flicking through the pages of the cookbook, exploring the different recipes from
around the world – maybe you will even find a dish from
your home country?
